Well thought-out organisation makes for greater efficiency and smooth operations.
Improved working conditions and efficiency in the workplace can only be achieved if operation, storage and transport are also optimized for the processes. A well-organised operation is key to ensuring the quality of the installation, customer satisfaction and the safety of employees. ISH 2025 offers inspirational ideas for improving operation, storage and transport in the sanitation, heating and air-conditioning sector.
Storage systems for the trade: efficient and well-organised
A well-organised storage system is the centrepiece of any craft business. Systematic and carefully organised use of storage space can significantly increase the work rate. Modern storage systems, including dynamic and electronic solutions, save a great deal of time and make the business more responsive to customer enquiries and requests. With the help of storage system software and ERP systems, materials such as pipes, fittings and small parts can be efficiently managed and stored so that they can be found quickly. Missing components can simply be reordered via wholesale interfaces, avoiding delays.
Individualised transportation systems
Installers and other trades are inevitably constantly moving between different sites and the workshop. It is here that well kitted-out service vehicles with space for tools, machinery and materials have a crucial role to play. From works vehicles to dedicated tool chests and vehicle fittings – the right provisions for a mobile workforce facilitate rapid access to tools and materials and ensure smooth work processes on site. A well-planned, constructed and equipped vehicle, based on a building-block system, will provide the necessary flexibility and efficiency in everyday use.
New and sustainable transport solutions
The increasing use of electric vehicles in the trades is also accompanied by the expansion of e-charging infrastructure on the company premises, which employees can also use for private vehicles. The inclusion of dynamic storage systems in vehicles leads to a more sustainable use of resources, thus helping to reduce the environmental footprint. And for smaller servicing jobs and repairs in urban areas, cargo bikes may well be the solution.
Optimisation of transport and storage makes for smooth operational processes
Proper organisation of operation, storage and transport is crucial to the success of an enterprise in the skilled trades. ISH 2025 offers an ideal opportunity to find out about the latest trends and technologies and to set about future-proofing the business and its procedures.
